so i’ve spent quite a bit of time doing everything possible to keep my mind off things. yesterday i spent a nice chunk of time looking through vinyls in a flea market. i finally selected three-one of which was the freewheelin’ bob dylan…so glad to have it in its original form.

i say this a lot, but i have a new favorite dylan song. girl from the north country. it has all the longing and sense of loss as many of his other songs i love so much, but this song lacks any sort or bitterness or regret. absolutely beautiful. it is everything i love about dylan. poetic. simple in the best ways. i also love that the first few notes of the song are a bit decpetive in that they seem to be fitting for a far happier song.

this is the way i want to remember everybody.
